Wall Street hits record high after Trump election win, as US dollar, bitcoin and Tesla shares surge – business live

The European Commission is expected to retaliate like-for-like, which could mean higher inflation in the euro area – or, as manufacturing firms’ pricing power is so diminished, as we have been flagging for some time, firms could be forced to absorb these higher costs, which in turn may result in some firms shuttering and unemployment rising, thus weighing more heavily on growth.
